I want to take my car to a track…what mods should I start with?

First and foremost…what type of racing do you want to do?

When it comes to tracking your car the first thing we focus on is stopping.

Flush your fluid with a quality brake fluid. We have had great success with both Motul 660 and Castrol SRF
To help brake pedal feel under track conditions upgrade to stainless steel lines
Use a proper set of brake pads and rotors for the type of circuit/class you are running but remember, you can only stop as fast as your tires will allow. Click here details on track tested combinations.
Get a proper wheel alignment. There are a few aspects to this and details can be found on our Alignment Tips page here.
1. If you are seeing significant tire wear in your front tires (specifically the driver front) you most likely need more camber.
2. Bushings are a known weak link on the MQB platform. In the rear we have seen significant camber changes due to deflection of the factory bushings. When the camber changes the Toe also changes resulting in unpredictable handling characteristics.
Get grip….There are lots of opinions about tires and much of this depends on class rules, weather conditions and the type of event/track. Regardless, we strongly recommend getting a set of dedicated track wheels/tires.
Springs and suspension. We know what you are thinking…buy our suspension, right? Well depending on the class you run and your budget that isn’t the only answer. Here are details of what we found that works…and what hasn’t.

Details coming soon…
